|---|---|---|
O Lord, by these [things men] live, and in all these [things is] the life of my spirit: so wilt thou recover me, and make me to live.
|
Behold, for peace I had great bitterness: but thou hast in love to my soul [delivered it] from the pit of corruption: for thou hast cast all my sins behind thy back.

For the grave cannot praise thee, death can [not] celebrate thee: they that go down into the pit cannot hope for thy truth.
